Well guys, just dropped off my 89 celica GT-S with one of my friends dad who specializes in Toyotas, cars and trucks. He's going to be doing this engine swap for me. So tomorrow i'm going to see him and he's going to tell me what we need to get out of my 89 celica to put the 3SGTE engine out of it, and put it in my 95 celica. I know I already need the wiring harness, engine (of course), and the GT brackets...
I'm really excited, i'm going to drop my 95 celica off with him tomorrow and he told me he should have the swap complete by Monday, so i'm wicked excited about it. I'm going to go help him sometime this weekend when i'm not hanging out with my gf. I'll post some pictures sometime this weekend and keep ya'll updated.. Were all of you guys this excited when you knew your plan was finally becoming reality..I'm really excited about it.. -------------------- |

I'm glad you're going to 7AFTE route. I personally thought you jumped into the whole 3s swap thing pretty fast. I mean doing the swap in a weekend plus a couple of days for your first time is pretty damn insane. Oh yeah don't forget pics of the turbo build.
